Story

She is sweet, very curious, can walk on her hind legs and loves to run & play! I've had her for 9 months, ever since a neighbor moved out and abandoned her and his other dog. I've had her spayed and microchipped and she is kennel trained, house broken, fully vaccinated and has gone through the PetSmart basic training course so she knows the basic commands. Unfortunately, I have a senior dog who needs a lot of attention and is very jealous and does not want her there. I also travel a lot and she deserves better. She will come with her kennel, mat, bed, leads, harness, lick mat, bowl and car seat belt.

Story

Kingsley’s journey hasn’t been easy—he was found malnourished and terrified, but with patience and love he has blossomed into a happy, affectionate, and resilient boy. After 5 months in foster care, Kingsley is showing his true colors: he loves to gallop around the backyard, snuggle close, and even puts his paws on you to say “I love you.” Bonus—he has the cutest little bowtie pattern on his chest that makes him look dressed up for every occasion! Sweet and affectionate—he loves attention, cuddles, and giving kisses. Once shy and shut down, he’s blossomed into a joyful, loving dog. He enjoys zooming around the yard and showing off his goofy side. Mostly house trained (still adjusting but has made great progress). Kingsley has lived with small dogs, but food sharing can be an issue—he wants all the food and attention to himself. Because of this, he’d likely do best as the only pet in the home, where he can soak up all the love without competition. He’ll need an adopter with patience.

Story

I had gotten Teacup from a Georgia shelter. He is 1 year and some months old. I believe that his birthday is January 27, 2024. He is a big cuddler, loves being hugged and kissed. He loves other dogs and kids. He gets excited meeting new people. He does have a crooked tail and some of his toes are crooked since I first got him, the vet said there is no concern about it. He does get scared by loud noises and sometimes by water. The only dog food I give him is the Perena dog Chow chicken flavor. And eats any treats I give him. He is kennel trained. When in a kennel he sleeps on a few blankets. When out of the kennel he sleeps on a dog bed with blankets. He loves any toys, but can destroy them when not looking. He sometimes steals socks and hides them. He does know how to use puppy pads. He knows when to leave the yard and when not to. He sticks by your side and follows you anywhere with and without a collar.

Story

I found her on the side of the road on 9/24. She was not microchipped at the time. She was found with her mom the same night, She is super well behaved, cuddle bug, loves walks & the beach, and loves to play with people at the park. She’s very playful and spunky. I am hoping to find a home where she can stay together with her mom as well. They are bonded and I would hate to split them up.

Story

This dogs original owner was the boyfriend of my daughter. Unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly in a tragic event. The dog was rehomed to his parents house, but they could not maintain and take care of the dog. Therefore, my daughter brought the dog to my house. We have a large family and two dogs of our own to care for already. They are older and a lot smaller than this dog and we dont have the finances or space to properly take care of a dog this size. The two dogs we own are Pugs and already require an abundance of medical costs and treatments. We feel bad because the dog is spending more time in a cage then outside one. We want to rehome the dog to an environment where it can receive the love and care it deserves. It is a sweet dog, very energetic, and requires a lot more attention than we can provide. Finding it a home will take a burden from our family that we did not expect to take on. We have already started house training the dog and teaching her obedience.

Roxie is a very loving and affectionate 6-year-old dog who absolutely adores kids and loves being part of the family. She has a sweet, gentle personality and is happiest when she’s playing ball or spending time with her people. Roxie is fully house trained, stays off furniture, and is crate trained. She’s well-mannered, loyal, and truly just wants to be loved and included. We are heartbroken to rehome her, and the only reason we’re doing so is because our rental has increased the pet rent and we can no longer afford it. Roxie deserves a home where she can continue to be cherished and part of a loving family.

Story

Sadie is a sweet loving girl with lots of energy! She loves her toys and her playtime outside. She would be great with a family or single person that had lots of time to spend with her, taking her for walks and running around the yard with her. We just don’t have that kind of time and it seems to be unfair to her. She comes off a bit skittish at first, but once she warms up to you, she is a very loyal, playful companion.
